As a beachside retreat, Tybee Island brings together old and new – clapboard cottages and Bermuda- precisely that soft blend of natural marshes and Atlantic shoreline, modest history and seaside playground that makes Tybee a celebrated family vacation destination. At the south end of the island, the pier and pavilion stretches into the Atlantic, tempting people watchers and fishermen intent on capturing the ‘fish story’ catch of the day. And the authentically refurbished lighthouse and five-acre grounds and outbuildings remind us of her role in guiding mariners to the Savannah River for nearly 300 years. It is precisely that soft blend of natural marshes and Atlantic shoreline, modest history and seaside playground that makes Tybee a celebrated family vacation destination.Locals can’t compete with crimson sunsets, wading herons or silky sand dunes; but they roll out dining hospitality, shopping convenience and fun modes of transportation. You’ll find casual waterside restaurants and loftier southern inn-style fare, with fried green tomatoes every bit as popular as delicious servings of fresh fish. You’ll want to join the line-up at The Breakfast Club for mouth-watering omelets and southern grits. Wander to shops and galleries, along the marshes and shoreline in a fun, open air Tybee Cruiser. They’re eco-friendly, electric transportation to liven your tour around the island– but be sure to make a reservation. Just 18 miles and 20 minutes away, Savannah offers a virtual silver platter of Southern heritage, arts, entertainment and exceptional dining. Gather family and friends and plan a lovely day of exploring cobblestone streets, shaded historic squares and parlor-room hospitality! Be sure to include the City Market for a remarkable mix of artist lofts, musical entertainment, boutique shopping and more.

Best hot sauce shop ever. Free tasting bar with over 150 tasting bar selections and over 500 products in the shop.
Don't miss all the spicy deliciousness at the coolest shop on Tybee Island. Right across from the island's favorite pizza, Huc-a-poos and the most popular coffee shop, Tybean. Inferno has EVERYTHING spicy, from the mildest sauces, rubs, salsas and seasoned salts to medium hot to hotter than hades! The best part is they have a tasting bar. What a mouth-watering selection! The tasting bar is sooo much fun. There is something tasty for every palette. Inferno is a must for anyone who likes to spice up their life. You are going to LOVE it!

TS CHU's has been here for a long time and anytime I have been to Tybee over the years, we always visit CHU's. Great store with many things to see and buy and browse. My children loved this store as much as I did when I was their age. We always liked going in here as part of our Tybee Vacations over the years. Staff are usually friendly and helpful. Some of the prices are HIGH because it is a beach store BUT youcan find some neat things and sometimes even some things on sale, especially during different seasons.

Cute little market. It's small, but had a good array of items. It's definitely worth the trip. If your here on vacation, it's a good place to pick up some eggs and bread.

I needed postcards galore for a ministry I have, and boy did they have THE BEST SELECTION on the Island! They also had the sweetest earrings (I LOVE earrings, grin). My favorite Tshirt had the design on the back...not helpful when you're in a w.chair...I mentioned it, and presto, they went in the back and made me one with the design on the front. Literally hot off the press. They did not hover, but if you needed anything they were right there to offer assistance. LOTS of camaraderie and easy chit chat..and hopefully the beginning of lasting friendships. Next year a group of about 14 of us are going...and hope to use this store to fill the Welcome baskets. GREAT place.
